In Crowds
يَوۡمَ يُنفَخُ فِي ٱلصُّورِ فَتَأۡتُونَ أَفۡوَاجࣰا ١٨
A day when the trumpet is blown and ye come in multitudes.
Translation: Marmaduke Pickthall
Meaning
The Day the Trumpet is blown and you come in crowds.
Insight
According to Elmalılı, this is not the blast of destruction but the second blast, of rising and awakening.
Reflect
Think about which crowd you want to be in on that day.
